Kuiu attacks. If it became stylish to wear them to the office, I would. They are amazingly perfect.

Been wearing Cabelas Microtex pants for the last 5 or 6 years and for the price they are hard to beat. Also haven't worn a pair out yet my oldest pair would have over 200 days of hunting.

Columbia zip off pants, dry quick and light. Is this your first trip?

Filson whipcord wool. Light, tough, warm when wet, and last forever.

Jean shorts that you cut yourself. That's the ticket right there.

It's not the thought of the jean shorts itself that would drive us all to drink...it's the thought of the stuff hanging out of them because BB cut them too short that's the scary part:shock:. Almost as bad as a kilt.

Like the kuiu attacks but north face zip-offs are hard to beat. Light, dry fast an you can turn them into shorts if it's hot out or for crossing creeks.

I have used Royal Robbins Zip-n-go convertible pants for many years. They are not designed as a hunting pant, but they are tough.

Just a hint don't wear them to class you just may get "ostracized " a bit more from your peer group .......:wink::wink:

I like the North Face Paramount convertible pants a lot. Very breatheable, stop wind and dry super quick. Being able to zip the legs off on hot days is an added bonus as well.

$50-$60 on sale don't suck either.......

I actually do wear those to the office. A colleague told me one day "do you have a formal meeting- why are you dressed up"? :)

Took a newbie sheep hunting a couple years ago who bought a pair of those. He was pretty proud of them.
Proud up until he realized all ebay sellers aren't honest. Might want to try them out a few times before you head into the back country....
